A council colleague described Efeso Collins as a strong advocate and a family man. 

The former Auckland councillor and mayoral candidate died this morning after collapsing at a charity event.

He entered Parliament at last year's election and delivered his maiden speech last week.

Alf Filipaina says Collins was a supporter for South Auckland and wanted a better future for his daughters.

"I know that he wanted to make a humongous difference in Parliament for our community, and for our people...and he passes this morning."
